buy some of those water jugs that you put in coolers for the water in your tanks then you need less fresh made water, unless you are making it ahead of time. warm up your vehicle first too

oh wait didn't notice that your from vancouver....forget needing to warm up your car

I'm moving soon too.
Any idea what they cost and do they buy them back?

Thanx much,

When I moved from Victoria to Vancouver I filled a cooler (about 15-20gal) about half full and moved all my fish in that. I only have 6 fish. It worked great. I think that a cooler is the way to go as it will keep the temp. stable for a long time. I also had 2 of those styraphome boxes that fish staore use to ship livestock in for all my coral. I did not loose one thing in the move.
